I signed up for updates from google news a few hours ago and one of the stories about the Sam's Club delay show a picture that has a kickstand. Is this legit?

I won't say it's impossible or improbable. More than likely that was just a picture they used to fill the spot since there are no confirmed pictures of the new Bionic other than the ones we've seen from Amazon. Amd even then, those may end up being wrong as well. Nothing is concrete at the moment and that is why so many of us are going crazy!
 
Pretty sure that is a pic of the Photon for Sprint.

Yeah the picture was blurry when I was looking at it on my crappy BB. After I made the thread I looked at it on my computer. When I tried to save it Motorola Photon was in the file name.

Thought I was on to something... guess this tread can be locked. Sorry guys.
 
That article is fairly stupid and just written for hits. The Bionic still has a better processor, Verizon LTE and isn't FUGLY like the photon. :)

I have to say I agree with the article I've been saying for some time the Photon and Bionic are brother's. One just has a different processor.

LTE and WiMax are really just a push because they are on different networks but the hardware is essentially identical.

I really hope not. That means that the Bionic is really an improved Etna and the Targa is the Dinara rumored for later this year.

Agreed. Exact reason why I feel that the bolt is pretty much the evo 4g

Aside from the possible inclusion of a 720p screen, the Dinara is no more advanced. Especially if it runs on an OMAP4 - it'll likely take a slight performance hit due to the extra processing power required to run a 720p screen at normal frame rates. 13MP for a cell phone camera censor is entirely too much and a downgrade. The Bionic is the first of a slew of phones with identical/very similar specs.

I agree. At some point good enough has to be good enough. You can't always hold out for a better phone. I had to go back to my Storm2 after my TB I bought on Ebay bricked from the last update. I can not wait to get back to Android.

But at the same time, you need to think, what could you possibly do with a phone that has a dual core 1.2 GHz processor that you couldn't do with dual core 1.0 GHz processor? Would anyone really notice the 0.2 of an inch in screen size if the Dinara has a 4.5 inch screen? And like you said, 13MP is too large for a phone camera. Your pictures would be 7 to 10MB a piece.

End my non-coherent rant.
